Michigan’s statewide trout opener approaches, and anglers across the state are making plans for April 27, the last Saturday of the month.
The Indiana DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife plans to stock nearly 63,000 rainbow and brown trout across the state this spring in preparation for inland trout fishing season, which, for inland streams, opens Saturday, April 27.

Avid fishermen like to use a term that some anglers dont quite understand: The pattern.
A pattern is proven methodology used to find and catch fish on a specific day. It can be a type of lure, how the lure is worked, depth, or any number of environmental factors. The best pattern is one in which you figure out all of those elements.
Its like putting together a puzzle. The sooner you get all the pieces in place, the better your success will be on a given day.
Its a system bass fishermen use but it also can be applied to just about any other kind of fish that lives in our natural lakes.
